OK, it's dumb question of the day time folks. When responding to specific posts on here- how do I get any quotes from another poster to appear in one of them nice neat blue boxes? I keep pressing the quote button , but the text just appears as normal and it looks like something what I've writ instead of a quote. :angry:

When you press the 'quote' button it prepeares the text to display in that box, but won't actually show it until you either preview the post, or just post it (with your added text). As has been said, everything between the [quote ] and [/quote ] (ignore the spaces in there - needed to put them or it wouldn't display it) will be in the blue box.

Simples! :angry:
